I'm pretty sure people using J-shaped O2 bungs on there test pipes are leaving power on the table because the O2 sensor is getting an in accurate AFR. Correct me if I am wrong here.
The second O2 sensor is on the test pipe / HFC, the first one is on the header (right?). AFR readings are only taken from the first sensor, the second sensor is merely a check to see if the cat is doing its job.
